Thousand Finger Banana

The Thousand Finger banana prefers a sunny to partially shaded, warm, and wind-protected location. It is frost-sensitive and thrives best in tropical to subtropical climates.

The soil should be rich in humus, nutrient-dense, and well-drained. A slightly acidic to neutral pH value between approximately 5.5 and 7.0 is ideal, and regular watering is important.

The plant usually reaches a height of 3 to 5 meters and grows relatively quickly. It typically bears its first fruits after about 2 to 3 years under good conditions.
